Lad
Topical Encyclopedia
In biblical terminology, the term "lad" is often used to refer to a young boy or a youth. The Hebrew word often translated as "lad" is "na'ar," which can denote a range of ages from infancy to young adulthood, depending on the context. The term is used in various narratives throughout the Bible, highlighting the roles and significance of young individuals in God's unfolding plan.

Old Testament References

1.Ishmael: InGenesis 21:12-20, Ishmael, the son of Abraham and Hagar, is referred to as a "lad" when he and his mother are sent away into the wilderness. The narrative emphasizes God's care and provision for Ishmael, as God hears the voice of the lad and provides a well of water for them.Genesis 21:17 states, "God heard the voice of the boy, and the angel of God called to Hagar from heaven and said to her, 'What is wrong, Hagar? Do not be afraid, for God has heard the voice of the boy where he lies.'"

2.Isaac: In the account of the binding of Isaac (Genesis 22), Isaac is referred to as a "lad" when Abraham takes him to Mount Moriah. This account is pivotal in demonstrating Abraham's faith and obedience to God.Genesis 22:5 records Abraham's words to his servants: "Stay here with the donkey while I and the boy go over there. We will worship and then we will come back to you."

3.Joseph: Joseph is described as a "lad" inGenesis 37:2 when he is seventeen years old and tending the flocks with his brothers. This introduction sets the stage for the significant role Joseph will play in the history of Israel, as his journey from favored son to Egyptian ruler unfolds.

New Testament Reference

1.Feeding of the Five Thousand: In the New Testament, the term "lad" is used in the account of the feeding of the five thousand. InJohn 6:9 , a boy provides the five barley loaves and two small fish that Jesus miraculously multiplies to feed the multitude: "Here is a boy with five barley loaves and two small fish, but what difference will these make among so many?" This event underscores the theme of God's provision and the importance of childlike faith and generosity.

Theological Significance

The use of the term "lad" in the Bible often highlights the potential and importance of youth in God's plans. These narratives demonstrate that God can use individuals of any age to fulfill His purposes. The accounts of Ishmael, Isaac, Joseph, and the boy with the loaves and fish illustrate themes of divine provision, faith, and the unfolding of God's covenant promises. The inclusion of young individuals in these significant biblical events serves as a reminder of the value and potential of youth in the eyes of God.
Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary
1. (p. p) of to guide.
